I wouldn't want that to happen to me. Well, I want to wish you the best of luck and hope you come out alive. No seriously, good luck.

 

P.S. Are you going to be mute for a couple days/months, since they're going to be *gulp* moving your entire jaw?

From what they've told me, I'd barely be able to talk for at least 3 months. Or eat. So I'd need to drink, like, smoothie meals and those weird Carnation breakfasts.

 

They also said I'd lose weight because of that, but, hey, I figured that out on my own.

My brother recently had similar jaw surgery on his upper jaw; I think it might've been the same type. But anyways, I'm not gonna lie to ya -- you're gonna bleed A LOT. He had to eat/drink frosties from Wendy's for days.

 

Good luck, though! I wish I could say get well soon, but I know that isn't really possible.

Hey, nothing wrong with Carnation Instant breakfasts. Sometimes, that's the only breakfast I have time for.

Just use 1% instead of skim milk: gives it a little more body. 2% is too heavy, though.

 

Good luck with surgery!

Speaking of braces, I just got mine off on Monday! Good luck with yours, Nikira!

Dude, Vezon's loaded. =O

Wow.

 

I have an overbite and all I have to do is have a metal brace be put in my mouth (called a Herbst Appliance) to put my jaw in the right position. Then the braces to straighten my teeth out are coming at the end of this month.

 

I'm sorry for you. *shudders at thinking about what you'll go through* And I thought this was bad.

I myself had a Herbst Appliance glued to my top jaw when I was younger. I also had headgear, about 3 retainers, all that good stuff.

 

Ain't the orthodontist trips fun? I'm so glad mine is a nice one.

I only need the Herbst and some regular, standard braces. I fear orthodontist trips as well... and dentist trips too, 'cause they're in the same building. I've been there so many times this year, that I've become accustomed to -- and hate -- the smell in the dentist's office.
